6 Best Gastropubs near Cary

“Had a great time stopping in for lunch on a Sunday. Tasty spicy Bloody Mary. So happy they bag interesting vegetarian options!!! This made my vegetarian friends happy and me because I picked it! Buffalo Cauliflower was just lightly battered and peefectly cooked with a good plate full. The chickpea curry was yummy and I had grilled chicken with it. The desserts looked yummy but not this trip. Next visit we will try the beer and desserts!Vegetarian options: Offered tofu as alt protein!Dietary restrictions: They are a scratch kitchen so were able to accommodate a few changes due to allergies“

“The menu and taplist are great! Something for everyone! Plenty of vegetarian and carnivore options, most beer styles well-represented. Lots of local gems on the tap list, amazing selection of bottles and top shelf whiskey wall, and superb specialty cocktails. Great service-Real good people.“

“Zin is a place that we don't visit often. The food is decent enough, but an extremely limited menu. The service was slow on a night where it wasn't very crowded, and I would say our meals were above average but definitely not something that I would recommend as a must go to. It's a decent place to meet friends for a cocktail maybe a couple of appetizers really more than anything else.“

“I mean I know I review 5 stars almost every time, but that’s because I give props where props are due. I had the double smash burger and it was Aaaaaaamazing! Cooked to perfection. Thank you for being our hidden gem. Every time we choose the Side Lot… we go home happy.“

“Duke's Ale House stands out as a certified green restaurant, showcasing a commitment to sustainability by sourcing ingredients predominantly from local farmers practicing organic or sustainable farming methods. The establishment boasts an inviting atmosphere complemented by an impressive craft cocktail and beer selection. The meatloaf with mashed potatoes and the fish fry with homemade French fries are notable highlights, offering a delightful culinary experience.
